Had an amazing stay here over the last 5 nights, whole Property was immaculate and you can see the care the family put into running it. Great location only 5 minute walk from town centre and 5/10 to The beach. Plenty of tavernas and shops close by again within 5/10 minutes. Property is underrated and for what we paid it was above our expectations and underrated. During the day most other guests went to the beach meaning that we had use of the pool to ourselves and loved it. Would book again in a heartbeat. Thanks for a wonderful stay

Just back from a fantastic stay in Georgiopoulis, loved our stay at the Athena Hotel, lovely family run hotel, friendly, spotlessly clean, lovely swimming pool area. Only tiny problem was the shower pressure some evenings was very low but not a big problem. Will definitely stay again

This was a wonderful small property to stay in. The proprietor was so lovely. Could not fault her. The location was excellent. Pit of the very centre of Georioupolis but so close the town square was only a five minute (if that) walk away. Restaurants and shops were almost on the doorstep, with lots of choice. The beach was a stone’s throw away. But at the same time if you were there in high season you would be slightly removed from the hubbub. Our maisonette was impeccably clean. The beds were comfortable. It was nice to have a mini kitchen, in particular a fridge. We also appreciated that there was a table and chairs on our balcony for dining outdoors. The pool area was kept clean and tidy, and there was a sandstorm while we were there. All sand was removed from the pool the following day. Honestly, great value for money. The only fault I could find was the sofa which was not comfortable at all. It would make a great place for an extra bed, but for sitting, not so much. Would recommend.

The rooms were cleaned daily and adequately equipped for our stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made our stay very pleasant. We would definitely recommend this hotel to our friends and will be happy to visit again next year. The only downside was that there was quite a bit of noise from the roads outside but we eventually got used to this.

You get what you pay for. DISSATISFIED.

Room had poor lighting, no blanket (only sheets), and uncomfortable mattresses. However, the room was in good condition and had working AC. In addition, when we went to check out we were told that we had to go down the street to the ATM to pay in cash since the owner did not know how to use a credit card machine and that her son was not there to help her. We were VERY DISSATISFIED about this. Also, the wifi only worked near the office area and not in the room.

Excellent Hotel and Studios

We have just returned from our holiday staying at the Athena from 8th to 19th June. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and well maintained. We were welcomed by the owner and her Son. Both were very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are very well furnished and spacious with a nice balcony. The gardens are well kept and the pool area very clean. We thought the location was perfect, a 5 minute stroll to the centre and a little longer to the beach.

Aivan loistava lomakohde meille. Etsimme hiljaista kohdetta jossa palvelut kĂ€velyetĂ€isyydellĂ€. TĂ€mĂ€ oli sellainen. Meren ranta oli lĂ€hellĂ€, joskin aika tavalla varattu eri hotelleille. KyllĂ€ rannalla kĂ€veli, vuorovesi vaan piti liput punaisina. Onneksi oli rauhallinen pieni allasalue, jossa poikkeuksellisesti ei ollut nĂ€itĂ€ ”pyyhkeiden kuljettajia” varaamassa petejĂ€. TĂ€mĂ€ toimii nĂ€in hyvin. IsĂ€ntĂ€vĂ€ki oli sydĂ€mmellistĂ€, kiitokset heille. Vaikea löytÀÀ yhtĂ€ miellyttĂ€vÀÀ paikkaa/huoneistoa. Kiitos!

KĂ€yty monta kertaa

Kolme kertaa oltu - tÀllÀ kertaa kolme viikkoa kesÀ-heinÀkuussa. Mukavan rauhallinen, sopivasti sivussa (= parisataa metriÀ) kylÀn keskustasta, niin illan metelit eivÀt kantaudu hotellille. Toki viereisen valtatien ÀÀnet kantautuvat huoneisiin, jos pitÀÀ ikkunat auki. Siivous pÀivittÀin (pl. sunnuntai), pyyhkeiden vaihto parin pÀivÀn vÀlein. Hieno puutarha. Ilmastointi toimii, safety-box löytyy. Omistaja ja hÀnen poikansa todella mukavia. SÀngyt voisivat olla hiukan pidempiÀ ja ovat ehkÀ jonkun makuun liian kovia (tÀmÀ on toki mieltymysasioita). KylÀssÀ paljon hyviÀ ruokapaikkoja, hyvÀ leipomo, hotellin vieressÀ kahvila, josta saa vuohenmaidosta tehtyÀ jÀÀtelöÀ ja fantastinen Kreetan pisin ranta, jota pitkin voi kÀvellÀ vaikka Kavrosiin. Hotellin asukkaat olleet yleensÀ rauhallista porukkaa (ei remuavaa nuorisoa). Isot huoneet.
